Death From Addition isn't a Result of Bad Parenting: The Power of Addiction and Remembering Who I Was as Sam's Mom.

サマリー
あらすじ・解説
I have never been a perfect mom but the guilt I have felt over Sam's death has been relentless and I know that I am not alone. Parents like me are left with endless tragic questions that will never be answered. Most importantly, what decisions could I have made differently?
In today's episode, I discuss how losing a son or daughter to addiction isn't a reflection of bad parenting but often a cumulation of many factors including brain chemistry, ease of access, and the times we live in.
It's important to recognize that losing our son or daughter doesn't mean that we failed and also to remember the many things we did right and how much we loved them and tried to save them.
We can't change what happened but we can and should give ourselves the grace to recognize that our kids' addiction was not all about us.
As always, I will also remind us all of 3 simple but very effective ways to lift ourselves up on a daily basis and the limerick I have written for Sam this week.
